Toxic External Exposure Leading to Ocular Surface Injury [PDF]

open access: yesVision, 2023
The surface of the eye is directly exposed to the external environment, protected only by a thin tear film, and may therefore be damaged by contact with ambient particulate matter, liquids, aerosols, or vapors.

Empirical evidence that mean soil contaminant concentration is not a conservative indicator of external exposure to wildlife

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2023
Adequate information on external exposure is often a limiting factor in ecological risk assessments because of a lack of exposure data for free-ranging animals as they interact with a heterogeneous distribution of contaminants.
